A person is pulling their 20 kg luggage using the luggage handle. The handle is at an angle of 56 degrees above the horizontal.

If the person is pulling with a force of 71 N, what is the horizontal acceleration of the luggage (Ignore all friction)
3.19 m/s^2
1.99 m/s^2
0.74 m/s^2
1.02 m/s^2

Answer:

The answer to your question is:  a = 1.99 m/s²

Explanation:

Data

mass = 20 kg

angle = 56°

Force = 71 N

horizontal acceleration = ?

Process

Find the horizontal force

                                           cos Ф = adjacent side / hypotenuse

                                          adjacent side = hypotenuse x cosФ

                                          adjacent side = 71 x cos 56

                                          a.s. = 39.70 N

Newton's second law

                                  F = ma

                                  a = F/m

                                 a = 39.7 / 20

                                  a = 1.99 m/s²

A ball rolls for 8 seconds and travels 24 meters. How fast was it traveling?
belka [17]

Answer:

The speed of the ball was, v = 3 m/s

Explanation:

Given data,

The time period of the ball, t = 8 s

The distance the ball rolled, d = 24 m

The velocity of an object is defined as the object's displacement to the time taken. The formula for the velocity is,

                              v = d / t      m/s

Substituting the given values in the above equation,

                               v = 24 / 8

                                  = 3 m/s

Hence, the speed of the ball was, v = 3 m/s

A stuntman of mass 48 kg is to be launched horizontally out of a spring-
Damm [24]

The velocity of the stuntman, once he has left the cannon is 5 m/s.

The right option is O A. 5 m/s

The Kinetic energy of the stuntman is equal to the elastic potential energy of the spring.

<h3 /><h3>Velocity: </h3>

This is the ratio of displacement to time. The S.I unit of Velocity is m/s.  The velocity of the stuntman can be calculated using the formula below.

⇒ Formula:

  • mv²/2 = ke²/2
  • mv² = ke².................. Equation 1

⇒ Where:

  • m = mass of the stuntman
  • v = velocity of the stuntman
  • k = force constant of the spring
  • e = compression of the spring

⇒ Make v the subject of the equation

  • v = √(ke²/m)................. Equation 2

From the question,

⇒ Given:

  • m = 48 kg
  • k = 75 N/m
  • e = 4 m

⇒ Substitute these values into equation 2

  • v = √[(75×4²)/48]
  • v = √25
  • v = 5 m/s.

Hence, The velocity of the stuntman, once he has left the cannon is 5 m/s.

The right option is O A. 5 m/s

A physicist found that a force of 1.32 N was measured between two charged spheres. The distance between the spheres was 95 cm. C
labwork [276]

The electric force (and the gravitational force too) is inversely proportional
to the square of the distance between the objects involved.

In this question, the distance is increased by a factor of  (1.25/0.95) .

So the electric force will change by the factor of  (0.95/1.25)² .

The new force is

           (1.32 N) · (0.95/1.25)²  =  0.762... newton   (rounded)
